Our last day in the Wack we went to the Chiliwack Fair.

There were tons of animals for Ella to see.

The cutest of all were the mini horses. I think I almost had Judy convinced that they should get one for the back yard :)

This one belongs in the Will Ferrel movie "Blades of Glory"



What a big cow!

more ella antics

Everyday is an adventure with Ella.

Dinner tonight was asparagus stalks and chicken couscous with chick peas. She ended up being too hungry to screw around with new foods and refused it all. I was left with no choice but to get some yogurt into her to calm the beast before we again attempted her real dinner. She decided she wanted to drink her yogurt. All the better to get it into her tummy faster.
What a disaster! The good news is after we ran out of yogurt, she did eat all her couscous:)



Where Ella cooks up these ideas, I will never know.
She just started pillow diving today. It's so funny!!
